Figure 23 is a furnace-side View of one of the tube turns shown in Fig. 19.
The water cooled door of this invention comprises a hollow body provided with a hollow foot portion and a hollow head portion. The foot and head portions extend substantially throughout the full width of the hollow body and the space between the head and foot portions is lled with a refractory lining material through which a number of spaced vertically extending cooling water conducting pipes extend.
The arrangement is such that the colder cooling Water enters the door adjacent its top, ows downwardly through the refractory lining by Way of the spaced vertically extending pipes and enters the hollow foot portion. It then passes from esibire 3 the foot portion to the bottom of the hollow body and thence ows upwardly through the back wall or panel-like body from which it is discharged adjacent its top.
I thus in effect provide two planes of cooling Water, one which comprises the cold water owing down through the parallel pipes located within the refractory lining and the other the warmed water flowing up through the hollow body from the top of which it is discharged.
In the form of my door shown in Figs. 1 to 12 inclusive, the major part of the hollow body with its hollow foot and head portions is formed as a unitary steel casting. This casting embraces furnace-side wall 25 of the hollow body A, the top and bottom and the furnace-side wall 26 of the foot portion B, the top and bottom and furnaceside wall 21 with the head portion C, the support members 28 for the door operating truck, ribs 29 and 30 and pads 3l (see Figures 2 and 7).
The off-furnace side of hollow body A is closed by a steel plate 32 which may comprise one or more sections which are connected together and to the top and bottom walls of the hollow body, and to ribs 29 and 39 and pads 3l by deposited weld metal as indicated at 33 in Figs. 3-8 inclusive.
In this form, hollow head portion C is blocked off or closed to the hollow body A by means of a plate 34 which is Welded in place as shown in Figs. 3, 4 and 5. A series of spaced vertically extending pipes 35 connects hollow head C and hollow foot B. Cooling water inlet pipes 3-33 pass through openings formed for their reception in body closing plate 32 and in blocking off plate 34 and these pipes are welded in place within such openings.
Hollow head C thus becomes a header or manifold for spaced pipes 35, since all the cooling water entering hollow head C through one or the other or both inlet pipes 36 flows down through the refractory lining by way of such pipes 35.
A series of clean-out plugs 3l one for each pipe 35 are threaded into openings in the top of head portion C in line with said pipes or tubes 3-5. Outlet pipes 33-33 are welded within openings formed for their reception in plate 32 at the top of hollow body A.
Clean-out plugs Il@ are threaded into openings in plate 32 adjacent the spaces between baille plates 39.
Refractory lining The refractory lining preferably comprises courses of chemically bonded basic refractory tile. Each course is made up of full width tile 4l and half width tile 42. The full width tile All are provided with three circular depressions F13 in one wide face thereof and three corresponding button-like projections 44 in the opposite wide face thereof. Each full width tile is also provided with a corner notch 45 for engaging one of pipes or tubes 35. Each half width tile is provided with two similar circular depressions in one of its wide faces and two corresponding circular or buttonlike projections in its opposite wide face.
Each course contains two half width tile, all the others being of full width. One of the half width tile in each course is located adjacent the center of the course, the other being located at one end. In order to bond the tile (stagger the joints) the end half width tile are located at opposite ends of each two adjacent courses as shown in Figs. 9` and 10, which respectively show sections through the second and third courses from the top of the door of Fig. 1 and which as before pointed out are taken on lines IX-IX and XX of such gure.
Between each two adjacent courses of tile, I provide a row of ferrous metal reinforcing plates which comprise two half width plates 48, the remaining plates 49 of each such row being full width. A full width plate is shown in Fig. 16 and a half width plate in Fig. 17. Each full width plate is provided with three circular openings 46 of a size such as will readily encircle one of the tile projections 44 while each half width plate is provided with two such openings.
Each full width plate is provided with a notch 4l adapted to hook around one of the cooling water conducting pipes 35 as shown in Figs. 11
' and 12.
The full width tile shown in Fig. 10 are turned from those shown in Fig. 9 and while the tile of Fig. 9 are not hooked to cooling water pipes 35 they are prevented from sidewise movement relative to the door by reason of the position of pipes 35 with relation to notches 45 of the tile. All of the tile in the courses depicted in Fig. 9, however, are anchored to cooling water pipes 35 by the metal reinforcing plates.
The arrangement of the full width tile shown in Fig. 9 with relation to the pipes 35 prevents movement of the same laterally of the door. The full width tile shown in Fig. 10 are turned 90 so that wall 50 of notches 155 prevents such tile from moving toward the furnace. Since the courses of tile are bonded, the half width tile, by having their projections lying within two of the openings of a full width tile, are prevented from moving laterally of the door and also from moving toward the furnace.
The metal reinforcing plates which embrace the projections on the full width and half width tile assist in preventing the tile from moving toward the furnace side and, since the reinforcing plates in Fig. 12 are shown turned over with regard to those of Fig. l0, they also prevent the tile from moving laterally of the door.
From the construction of the tile and the reinforcing plates shown in Figs. 13-17 inclusive and the arrangement of such tile and plates disclosed in Figs. 9-12 inclusive, it will be seen that the refractory lining which is supported on foot B is securely held in position on such foot by cooling water pipes 35.
Wicket or peep-hole 5l formed of short tubular section as disclosed in Fig. 8 occupies the position usual in such furnace doors and the opening in the refractory lining around the tube sections is packed with a suitable refractory material 52.
In the form of my water cooled door disclosed in Figs. 18-22 inclusive, the hollow body A', hollow foot portion B and hollow head portion C are fabricated from steel plate-like material. The support members 28 for the door operating truck are ralso fabricated from plate-like material.
The hollow head is in open communication with the hollow body which comprises a number of hollow panels A" (Fig. 21) which connect the hollow foot portion B and hollow head portion C on the off-furnace side of the door structure.
Plate-ilike stiffening members 53 secured in position as by welding at spaced positions within hollow foot B', (Figs. 19 and 22),'have theirlower corners trimmed away to facilitate flow of the cooling water within the hollow foot yand from nication with either the interiorof hollow head portion C or body portion A'.
Tubes or pipes 35 are welded within openings formed for their reception in the bottom wall of hollow head portion C and the top wall of foot portion B. provided with an elbow 51 to which a nipple or short section of pipe 58 is threaded. These form a series of nozzles which direct the cooling water issuing from pipes 35 into contact with the furnace-side wall 25 of the hollow foot portion.
This arrangement causes all of the cooling water flowing down through pipes or tubes 35 to contact furnace-side wall 26 prior to entering the hollow body A. Hollow body A is provided with one or more outlets 59 adjacent its top for discharging the heated cooling water therefrom.
Portions of the door structure which receive particularly severe treatment, I provide with tube turns S0 which have their interiors connected to hollow body A so that the cooling water flowing up through such hollow body will also flow through such tube turns. These tube turns are provided with radiating fin-like flanges 6I which project radially therefrom. Each of these flanges has its inner or tube-turn ends curved as shown in Fig. 23 and these fin-like flanges are welded to the tube turns so as to insure good metallic connection.
The space surrounding the tube turns within the refractory lining is lled with plastic basic refractory material 62. It will be noted (compare Figure 18 with Figure 1 and Figure 10 with Figures 3 and 4) that the brickwork row construction shown by the former is otherwise the same as that shown by the latter, except for the cut-out illustrating the brickwork construction of both embodiments of my invention.
